Since that doesn't seem to be likely to happen anytime soon, and indeed there are folks who want to kill pgFoundry, I'm considering moving my project elsewhere. The only hesitation I have is that then pgTAP will not be visible on any PostgreSQL-oriented community site.

I know that when I release a Perl module to CPAN that it will be visible to lots of people in the Perl community, and automatically searchable via search.cpan.org and other tools. A CPAN release is a release to the Perl community.

There is nothing like this for PostgreSQL. pgFoundry is the closest thing, and, frankly, nowhere near as good (pgFoundry's search rankings have always stunk). So if I were to remove my projects from pgFoundry, how could I make them visible to the community? Is there any other central repository of or searchable list of third-party PostgreSQL offerings?

Thanks,

David
